Unlikely, since that's pretty much invisible to user code. > Can someone please verify what that directive does? I can't really answer that, but I can quote previous responses from Rainer: "Don't use socket_timeout. Use version 1.2.28 and socket_connect_timeout." http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=125897176719328&w=2 More information: http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=125675257720614&w=2 And more detail: "socket_timeout is a difficult beast and I generally do not recommend using it. mod_jk uses it in some special situations in order to be able to abort waiting for data. It is not directly 'how long a socket will be kept open'. How long a socket is kept open depends on how the socket gets used. "Usually you can get away pretty good using CPing and ping_timeout, socket_connect_timeout, eventually reply_timeout with max_reply_timeouts." http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=125663788907668&w=2 - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
